Plants Flashcards
Plant Cell:
- General features (3)
- unique features (3)
- eukaryotic, multicellular, autotrophic
- plastids, cell wall, single large central vacuole
Function of Plastids and its 3 types
STORAGE
1. Leucoplasts (colorless storage for starches, lipids, and proteins)
2. Chromoplast (pigment: yellow, red, orange)
3. Chloroplast (chlorophyll for green colour + photosynthesis)
what do you call the membrane around the large central vacuole
tonoplast
what are the 4 only plant parts that can be seen under microscope
nucleus
cell wall
plastids
central vacuole
composition of cell wall of the ff
- plants
- fungi
- bacteria
- cellulose
- chitin
- peptid
2 types of plant tissues
meristematic (immature @ root tips and apical buds)
permanent (differentiated)
3 types of permanent tissues
dermal
ground
vascular
2 types of dermal
E
- shape
- waxy substance that surrounds
- most unique structure where gas exchange happens
- what controls the swelling and shrinking of above ^
P
- where located
- shape
- arrangement
- lacks what at maturity
- composition of walls
- polyhedral
- cutin
- stomates
- guard cells
- corky outer bark
- tubular
- compacted
- protoplasts (entire cell except cell wall)
- suberin
3 types of ground tissues
thin-walled living tissues
Parenchyma
3 types of ground tissues
found in unspecialized regions
Parenchyma
3 types of ground tissues
generally contain the central vacuole

3 types of ground tissues
has unevenly thickened primary walls
collenchyma
